At the Ukrainian summit organized in Tirana where the leaders of the Western Balkans were also present, President Volodymyr Zelensky invited to co-produce ammunition that Ukraine will need to stop and repel Russian aggression.
'We see problems in the supply of ammunition. We are interested in the co-production of ammunition with you and our partners. Our team will present all the details. We propose to organize a special forum for the defense industry between Ukraine and the Balkans, either in Kiev or in a Balkan country', he said.
Even in the meeting with Prime Minister Rama, President Zelensky clearly articulated the demand for Ukraine's defense needs and the possible production of joint weapons.
Does the policeman come into play?
On the website of the Ministry of Defense it is written that currently the Mekanik Poliçan plant produces "Makarov" and "Parabellum" pistol ammunition with 19mm caliber.
Kombinati Mekanik Poliçan is a state enterprise, founded in 1962, with the aim of fulfilling the requirements of the Albanian Armed Forces for armament.
In the period 1962-1966, the production line was created for 7.62x39mm ("Kalashnikov") ammunition, 82mm mortar ammunition, offensive and defensive hand grenades, as well as anti-personnel mines.
In the period 1970-1972, the production line of anti-tank mines was installed in the existing building, and the line of 180 mm fireworks was installed in a new building.
In the period 1977-1985, a deep reconstruction was carried out with machinery and equipment imported from Switzerland and Austria, to enable the production of 12.7x99mm and 14.5x51mm caliber ammunition as well as 60, 107 and 120mm caliber mortar ammunition. The Poliçani plant has a GOST quality system./ Report tv
